Emergency brake job... 1mm left on front pads on Taco : $300
New battery for Miata that won't hold a charge: $150

2 broke cars on the same day? Priceless




ib4 "You paid that much for a brake job?!"

 

You paid that much for a brake... oh....

 

Hey guys I need a little knowledge. I have a chance to get a entire front 4x4 system (diff, cross member, drive shaft etc from a 98 runner v6 auto. Will this work for my conversion ?

 

Hmm i think so most suspension or parts is 4 runner compatible. I think 96-02 4runner is the same diff....you can make it work lol
search for stock part numers on those items and see if its the same for 4runner

 

Lol what kind of brakes did you get

 

I think so. I know the transmission and transfer case need to be from a newer taco (but you already have those). I can't think of any problem you'd run into with those parts off of a 4runner.
Weren't you going manual hubs? Is that all manual parts or ADD?

 

Haha what? Dude I told you to go for it! You said you could drive up north for them

 

OEM sadly. I was gonna do a EBC rotor and pad swap but the timing along with a trip this weekend just meant no go.

 

So i wanna know how you guys are measuring ride height? I know its center of hub to top of fender but how the hell do you get proper measurements when your tire is in the way it seems like just an eyeball measurement. Brought lift down raked and rubbing everywere but cv's are striaghtish and uniball looks good on UCA's

 

Gotcha you can still return them after the trip

 

So I did some research and the ADD front differential is the same part number from 95-2004 but what I'm concerned with is I can't seem to find the Non-ADD differential for any year Tacoma. I thought they were different tubes or something? I am trying to run manual locking

 

I need this support group....

Hi, my name is Spencer and I'm addicted to being indecisive and changing shit on my truck .....

 

Photos like this trigger my addiction....

 

I'm pretty sure the front diff needs to be for the manual hubs and manual style cv axles. I don't think the ADD type front diff will be compatible with manual locking hubs and cv axles.

ADD system from the Tacoma.

 

You've found the right place but also the wrong place. Like AA programs that tell you it's not good to give into your vice, WA will push you further and further into it. Good luck!

 

Maybe! It looks ok and drives straight but thats possible lol

 

I have not gotten alignment i think we confused eachother there haha

 

Ahh gotcha, Im trying to figure out how to measure and get 2" on mine lol

 

No.... please.... stop.... don't.... ok but seriously which tires should I got with when I go 35s?
